Novel Corrosion-Resistant Stainless Steel Developed for Green Hydrogen Production

Researchers at the University of Hong Kong have developed a new type of stainless steel, named SS-H2, which demonstrates exceptional resistance to corrosion. This innovation could significantly reduce the cost of producing green hydrogen from seawater by replacing expensive titanium components, potentially lowering structural material costs by approximately 40 times and making seawater-based hydrogen production more economical.
